An airplane pilot checks her instruments and finds that the air speed of the plane is 325 km/h. the instruments show that the plane is pointed in a direction (S 30 W). A radio report indicates that the wind velocity is 80 km/h (W). What is the velocity of...

A train moving at a constant speed of 100km/h travels east for 40min, then 30o east of north for 20 min, and finally west for 30min. What is the train's average velocity for the trip? The answer is 30 km/h (E 40 N) but I keep getting 66.6 km/h (E 30 N) he...

I want to know the reasoning behind each answer as well cause I have the answers, I want to know why and how to do the answers as well :) A parachutist jumps from a height of 3.1 × 10[Power 3] m and falls freely for 10 s. She then opens her parachute, and...

a lawnmower with a mass of 12 kg is being pushed by a force of 150n horizontally and 40 n down. if the kinetic coefficient of friction between the grass is 0.9, find the force of friction on the lawnmower. Please explain this as well, I am getting an answ...

62kg person in an elevator is moving up at a constant speed of 4.0m/s for 5.0s a) calculate the work done by the normal force on the person. b) calculate the work done by the force of gravity on the person . c) How would your answer change if the elevator...

a worker on the roof of a building that is under construction dropped a 0.125 kg wrench over the edge. another workman on the 8th floor saw the wrench go by and determined that its speed at that level was 33.1 m/s. the first floor of the building is 12.0m...

starting with the equation for resistors in parallel, prove that for two resistors R1 and R2, the equivalent total resistance (RT) is: Rt=R1R2/R1+R2 I kind of understand it, but it isn't giving me the right answer which should be the equation?

A reaction in a calorimeter containing 80.0 g of water at 20 degrees Celsius causes the temperature to fall by 1.5 degrees. what is the thermal energy of the water? I got 6.2 J or 6192.32 kJ but they say 5.02 x 10^4 kJ idk what I am doing wrong

A sample of acetone having a mass of 1.920 g undergoes complete combustion in an insulated calorimeter holding 400 mL of water. It is determined that the water and calorimeter together absorb 58.829 kJ of heat energy from this combustion. Based on this in...
